EGG-BEATER..

` Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. SLSSQ, dated January 2, 1866.

To all whom it 'may concern.-

Beit known that I, FRANCIS L. KING, of the city and county of Worcester, and Commonwealth of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Instrument or Machine called an Egg-Beaten and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction oi' the same, reference being had to the drawing annexed, which makes a part of this specification, and which is a perspective view of the same.

The loops (marked A) are made of steel Wire, rolled dat and thin, so that the edges on either side are made sharp and tinned over to keep them from rusting. They are bent up double to fmm the loop, coming together at the point, (mared B,) Where they are secured, and the Whole soldered together' in one solid mass, forming a Stift' and strong shank.

The handle (marked C) may be niade of any light Wood.

The center piece (marked D) is simply a straight piece of flat, sharp-edged Wire.

The Wire being attened and made of steel gives great strength and durability. It also gives elasticity, which allows the loops to accommodate themselves, without resistance, to a vessel of almost any shape, thereby rendering the labors of the Workman much less laborious.

The instrument is used in the same way that a person would use a fork or a spoon to beat up an egg.

I claim as my invention- The application and use of the attened and sharp-edged elastic steel Wire for the purpose of beating up -eggs or cutting up eggs, as specified.

, FRANCIS L. KING.
